Has some nice vegan options that other stores don't have

I like this store, it has many interesting vegan options across both the plantbase and longdan ( left side of the same building ) stores. Many freezer items, ready meals, dried and freezed vegan fish, beef, etc which are great! Also decent prices, for example you can get vegan brand instant noodles at the longdan for like 0.55£ and vegan beef at the plantbase for 1.65. Overall recommend to take a look, although the plantbase is not fully vegan, but many options. Also check the longdan which is the same store but a little bit different, it also has some other vegan stuff. Make sure to visit when in kingston

Big range of very interesting vegan foods!

I didn’t know that this was here! Came into Kingston and happened to see it from the carpark walkway. The range of faux meats in here is next level. Pretty much every animal you -never- wanted to eat has been recreated in vegan form! They have an excellent range of vegan sweets, biscuits and a large variety of Sheeze as well. Definitely pop in if you’re there, and worth a trip into Kingston for as there’s quite a lot of cool vegan stuff in the town anyway. Next door to this store is Longdan Express, which isn’t a vegetarian shop but will have lots of other vegan goodies like tofu, exotic fruits and veggies (be warned though - will have animal products in there).

Pros: Unusual faux-meat items like vegan baby shark!?, Lots of health foods , Stockists of more obscure plant-based brands

Cons: Some items not vegan (milk, eggs)

Plantbase is a part of Longdan next door; hence the mix of veg'n and non-veg'n items.

Fun Finds

Nice variety of food options. Visiting and staying in a hotel, there won’t be much you can get without use of a kitchen. Great for locals. We did find tons of fun (new to us) snacks.

Good

They have a good variety of vegan food items under one roof, however be aware that they also sell vegetarian items, so check the packaging to make sure.
Also you can sometimes find the same things for cheaper in supermarkets.

Not all vegan

Good to have more of a love to veganism as there isn’t much more in Kingston although I was disappointed that not everything was vegan so I had to still check the packaging. They do have some great products though and we’re finally heading in the right direction!

Lots of vegan and organic options

Shop with big selection of vegan frozen and cupboard foods e.g. violife cheese, oomph frozen fake meat, biona sauces and kimchi, frozen mock meat, tofus etc.
Also, Longdan shop next door also has big selection of vegan food and vegetables.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Clean, Friendly staff

Plantbase Store

EXCELLENT grocer that stocks a massive amount of unique vegan options that I haven’t seen elsewhere in London. As this is owned by Longdan, there is an abundance of delicious vegan Asian foods too, which makes this a winner for me!

Quite a find!

Previously an oriental food shop selling fish and meat, now converted into a vegan-only food store. Many items in stock are quite hard to find locally. I am looking forward to trying their packet mix of vegan mac and cheese.

Pros: Good selection of vegan food, Well-organised store, Good variety of vegan food unavailable locally.

Cons: Some items a little pricey, Still lacks some basic vegan items, Not vegan-run staff knowledge of veganism basic.
